70 Search Results panel at the time of carrying out the interferometry pair proposed search In product search (Advanced search), pair candidate having interference potential can be searched on the basis of scene information of PALSAR-2 and PALSAR. The search conditions of interferometry pair proposed are as follows: 1 The sensor is either PALSAR-2 (ALOS-2) or PALSAR (ALOS). 2 A scene center frame number matches when being same operation mode of the pair. A scene center frame number is in the pre-defined range when being different operation mode of the pair. 3 A gap between off nadir angles of the pair is in the pre-defined range. 4 The beam directions (only PALSAR-2) of the pair match (*) (*) PALSAR-2 can have two types of observation scenes, namely right-direction or left-direction. PALSAR has a single observation scene i.e. right-direction. 5 The satellite orbit directions (ascending/descending) of the pair match. 6 The polarized waves of the pair match. 7 The angle θ between two vectors facing the satellite position at the time of observing two scenes from the center position of the area wherein scenes of the pair overlap are in the pre-defined range. In interferometry pair proposed search, if there are two or more scenes matching with the conditions mentioned above, these are displayed as search results. (Figure 4-24, Figure 4-25) Figure 4-24 Example of search result display in case of interferometry pair proposed search 4-26
